Hello Jim! Thank you for the quick reply. "NSClient++ does this very well." - Well, the question is how. Sorry but I am only familiar with basic NSClient++ configurations and didn't found documentation for more advanced features.
For example let assume I want to monitor if Messenger service (from services.msc) is not started and get notification via mail. NSCA is configured in the Nagios linux server – how I do the service related configuration in the NSclient++. Where I need to configure it? In the ini file? What is the syntax? Can you give an example for the line/code/configuration I need to add in the NSclient? Pls be more detailed (remember I am a noob). One more question – So I need to update all my NSClients in all my monitored servers if I want the services mentioned to be monitored, right? I can't configure it in the Nagios linux server , right? Thanks for helping me with it. 2009/5/5, Jim Avery <j...@jimavery.me.uk>: > 2009/5/5 ntt broken <nttbro...@gmail.com>: >> >> >> 1.
